PROFESSIONALS
Preventive Legal Care
Trainers, boarding facilities, handlers, and breeders earn income providing services to their clients, caring for their clients' dogs, and selling dogs. You share a common goal of safeguarding the dogs in your care, providing quality services, and maximizing the financial investment you've made in your business, not to mention the time and talent you have given it.
When Should You Hire An Attorney:
There was a time when business was conducted with just a handshake. Buyers and sellers trusted each other in general business transactions and assumed the good character of the other party. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. Technology, work pressures, financial demands, communication errors, and lack of knowledge of the law creates dangerous pitfalls for transacting business without someone to guide you.
